Title

Ordinance amending water and sewer related rates for certain Lake County systems.

Staff Summary

·      The rate ordinance establishes all water and sewer user rates and connection fees for county water and sewer systems.

·      The ordinance is revised periodically to modify rates and fees, as necessary.

·      This proposed ordinance decreases the CLCJAWA Service Area water rate from $5.88 per 1,000 gallons to $5.79 per 1,000 gallons as a result of a decrease in the water purchase cost from CLCJAWA; increases the Hawthorn Woods - Glennshire and Forest Lake water rate from $6.89 to $7.05 per 1,000 gallons based on a $0.16 increase by Aqua Illinois in accordance to the purchase contract and the 2012 ICC approved rate increase; and increases certain laboratory test fees for customers that request testing of their water or wastewater that are listed as Attachment A.
